Guest guest Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 It is not unexpected on the diet. The diet is seriously lacking in vitamins and minerals. You likely have an inadequate supplement. We use Wholelife in California, the Cal-Mag-Zinc III which has vitamins and minerals. Zinc is important. Have you noticed any hair thinning or loss?

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 Maybe increase his dosage by 50 percent? Is he on 1 tablespoon a day(15 cc)? Is he spitting it out behind your back? Are you on a high keto ratio? I think zinc is important for healthy hair, but it also is important for absorbing vitamins and perhaps other things.

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2004 Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 Nicola, That sounds like twice the ordinary amount already. Maybe there is a problem with absorbtion or excretion or with measuring it. You may have a more complex situation. Are you taking any other medications? Perhaps they interfere with absorbtion. Are you giving it with anything else?

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2004 Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 Nicola, I don't think that the fish oil would affect it. I don't know anything about the affects of the epilim. Others may be able to help you.
